In Response To: more harshly interrogated plywood *PIC* (Will Clarke)

: This one was built by a friend of mine, at least 15 years ago. he
: said he built it from an article in Wooden Boat, but maybe it
: was the Sea Kayaker article Alex referenced, because the boat
: has the same ambition to be a submarine. My friend eventually
: built another one with more fullness in the bow, and gave me
: this one. Only the seams are glassed and it's bulkhead free, so
: it's very light. I took the seat out and sitting with my back
: against the coaming makes it a little less prone to burying the
: bow. I'm tempted to glue some foam blocks to the bow and carve
: them to look like a hammerhead shark, adding both buoyancy and
: personality!

I seem to remember an article about that in WoodenBoat magazine years back.
